Late last night I started feeling icky and have my hubby to thank for passing along a wonderful stomach "bug" that he had over the weekend. I've been up and down all night and feeling rotten this morning...but every few minutes my thoughts turn toward Heather who is facing something much more serious than a little 'ole stomach bug today.
Heather is having brain surgery to remove a tumor. This young girl has already had to endure much more than anyone should have to go through with her daughter, Emma Grace. Now she faces a mountain of her own. Please remember to keep her in your prayers.
A few weeks ago Boomama spearheaded a campaign to show Heather some "love" and we internets raised over $18,000. It just goes to show what the LORD can do through each of us if we are just obedient with the little things He asks us to do.
I've been keeping up with Heather (originally from Boomama's site), but you can also go directly to Heather's site and see the most amazing FAITH in ACTION. God is EVIDENT in this girl's life and demonstrated through her courage.
Keep her in your prayers today.
7:03 p.m. C.T. - Updated: Heather is out of surgery and can move her arms and legs, but is still under some heavy anesthesia. Please continue to keep her in your prayers. Check her site for the latest updates.
5 sweet friends had to say...:
Isnt her Faith just amazing?!!!
I have been so inspired by Heather.
I've spent my entire night reading her blog...I followed the link from 'justabeachkat' and have been thoroughly amazed at Heather's strength through all of this...she is an amazing girl. I know there are LOTS of people keeping tabs on her and that Heather and the people who care so much about her are absolutely covered in prayer...and that is AWESOME!
We sometimes wonder "why", but in Heather's case, part of the "why" just has to be the impact she is having literally around the world. I'm still praying.
Isn't she just the most amazing person? When I read her story with Emma Grace, I couldn't believe all they'd been through. Then I read about the brain tumor! Holy Cow! That's ALOT for one family! I'm so glad she'd doing well, so far! Thanks for the update!
